The Gotham City Project

Okay, so it was brought to my attention that we never officially started a thread about this little project... A bunch of us, at the urging of some of the other EBer's, decided to do GOtham Girls for the StarFest04, and now we have recruited a few others as well... Here's the run down of the people and their costumes:

Ra's Al Ghul's true name is lost to the sands of time. Of all the Dark Knight's foes, "The Demon's Head," as his name translates in Arabic, is perhaps the most dangerous. His life extended through periodic immersion in so-called "Lazarus Pits" excavated along Earth's magnetic ley lines and filled with an alchemical bath of acids and poisons, Ra's al Ghul's plan is simple: to cleanse the Earth through genocide and create a new Eden.

For centuries, he has amassed great wealth and power in this campaign, a crusade almost preordained to bring him into conflict with the Dark Knight. "The Detective," as Ra's al Ghul regards the Batman, is his most worthy opponent, and the one man most deserving of wedding his beautiful daughter Talia and inheriting the Demon's empire. But while Ra's al Ghul engineers global genocide-seeking out weapons such as the ancient Wheel of Plagues which spawned the Ebola Gulf-A plague that nearly decimated Gotham a year ago--he will forever remain enemy to the Batman.

Hmm. I have to admit I'm not much into the comics/gotham fandom, and I'm not sure I could really pull of a Batgirl costume well. OTOH, I like the idea of doing a big group theme, so I will have to think about this...

I think I'm leaning more toward Robin than Nightwing. It might be a little comical w/ me being taller than Terry, but there's a bit less visible spandex in Robin's costume than in Nightwings (which would be the entire thing I think) and even though I'd like to think I'll be in Nightwing-esque shape, I doubt it'll happen...plus Robin is more recognizable to the non-fans than Nightwing.
